1. SAFETY
1.1 Warnings
The Vacon NX frequency converter is meant for fixed installations only.
Do not perform any measurements when the frequency converter is
connected to the mains.
oltage withstand tests on any part of Vacon NX.
There is a certain procedure according to which the tests shall be per-
formed. Ignoring this procedure may result in damaged product.
The frequency converter has a large capacitive leakage current.
the frequency converter is used as a part of a machine, the machine
manufacturer is responsible for providing the machine with a main
switch (EN 60204-1).
Only spare parts delivered by Vacon can be used.
The motor starts at power
ommand is 'ON'. Furthermore,
the I/O functionalities (including start inputs) may change if parameters,
applications or software are changed. Disconnect, therefore, the motor if
an unexpected start can cause danger.
Prior to measurements on the motor o
r the motor cable, disconnect the
motor cables from the frequency converter.
Do not touch the components on the circuit boards. Static voltage dis
charge may damage the components.
1.2 Safety instructions
The components of the power unit of th
e frequency converter and all
cabinet mounted devices are potentially live when Vacon NX is connected
to mains potential. Coming into contact with this voltage is extremely
dangerous and may cause death or severe injury.
The motor terminals U, V, W an
link/brake resistor terminals
and all other mains devices are potentiallylive when Vacon NX is con-
nected to mains, even if the motor is not running.
After disconnecting the frequency converter from the mains, wait until
the fan stops and the indicators on the keypad go out (if no keypad is
attached see the indicators on the cover). Wait 5 more minutes before
doing any work on Vacon NX connections. Do not even open the cabinet
door before this time has expired.
s are isolated from the mains potential. How
ever, the relay outputs and other I/O-terminals may have a dangerous
control voltage present even when Vacon NX is disconnected from mains.
Before connecting the frequency converter to mains make sure that t
Vacon NX front and cable covers as well as the cabinet doors are closed.
ONLY A COMPETENT ELECTRICIAN MAY CARRY OUT
THE ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
